Benjamin Moore

Linen White

912 / PM-28, OC-146

Linen White is a warm off-white carrying cream and subtle yellow undertones that prevent it from reading stark or clinical. It leans noticeably warm compared to true whites, especially under incandescent lighting where the yellow pushes forward. At an LRV of 80.94, it functions near the top of the reflectance scale and works effectively as a ceiling or trim color.

Ballet White and Muslin share its warm base and layer well alongside it. Muted earth tones in olive or clay provide understated contrast without creating a jarring shift.
